Dining at Grace

In college, you’ve got plenty on your mind. Campus Dining at Grace has worked hard to ensure you won’t have to worry about finding something great to eat when you want it. We’ve designed meal plans and menus that are certain to meet your individual needs.


Meal Plans

Meals Plans at Grace College offer a wide range of options, so you can find one that best meets your dining needs. Scans and flex dollars can be used at Alpha Dining Commons, SubHub, Grace Starbucks, and the Campus Store. Grace Food Services offers six meal plans. If students do not make a selection, they will automatically be billed for the equivalent Meal Plan you had the last semester.

Frequently Asked Questions

When can I change my meal plan?

Meal plans can be changed at the beginning of each semester for those who have completed their first year on campus. They are due before the add/drop deadline of each semester.

How do I change my meal plan?

There is a Google Form that will be sent out by Dining Services when the change period begins. The form can only be filled out through your Grace email account. If you have filled it out once, you will need to reach out to foodservice@grace.edu and ask for your previous request to be reset so you can submit again.

Can I add more Flex or Aux to my account?

Additional Flex or Aux dollars can be purchased through Student Accounts located in the Student Services Hub throughout the semester.

What if I am a commuter? Do I automatically get placed on a meal plan?
If you lived on campus previously, you will remain on whatever meal plan you had during your most recent semester. You can request it to be removed by filling out the meal plan change form before the deadline. If you would like to have a meal plan as a commuter, you are welcome to add one by filling out the same form. 
Can I dine on campus without a meal plan?

Yes! You are more than welcome to come dine at any of our locations even if you do not have a meal plan. We are cashless, but we do accept debit and credit cards.

What is the difference between Flex & Aux?
Flex can be used at Alpha Dining, SubHub/Westy, Starbucks, and in the Village but not the Bookstore
 
Aux can be used at Alpha Dining, SubHub/Westy, Starbucks, and in the Village and is the ONLY form accepted at the Bookstore. 
 
Flex will be the primary form of payment, and when that has been used up, it will begin to use your Aux points.
How do I know what my balance is?

You can email foodservice@grace.edu to ask for a balance check at any time.

Where can I use Flex in the Village?
The Boathouse
Cerulean
Light Rail
Rocket Fizz

Please make sure you have your ID card with you and ready to go when you come to each of the dining locations.
